The pioneers of the "Gothenburg style" melodic death metal sound, At The Gates, are about to begin the recording sessions for their much anticipated comeback studio album.

Featuring the classic line-up of their latest masterpiece, "Slaughter Of The Soul" (1995), the band has just wrapped up pre-production work for their new material and is ready to commence the recording sessions for the upcoming "At War With Reality" album in the next days.

At The Gates checked in with the following status update via guitarist Anders Björler: "So, things are getting closer to the recording of 'At War With Reality'. We are currently rehearsing and putting the final touches to all the songs. This album is turning into a monster. It's all coming together in a very satisfying way. Stay tuned for some studio updates in June/July."

The band previously posted a pre-production video, which can be viewed at this location. "At War With Reality" is expected to be released in October/November of 2014 via Century Media Records worldwide.

Having most recently performed a blistering set at Maryland Death Fest in the USA,At the Gates has already announced the dates for their "At War With Reality" tour throughout Europe and the UK. All upcoming shows, including a newly confirmed show in Dublin, Ireland in January 2015, are as follows:

Slaughter of the Soul is a terrible record. Stop promoting that record as "great" because that type of promotion is part of what killed, and is killing good metal. Listen to "The Red in the Sky is Our" and "Gardens of Grief", now that is death metal, that is greatness!
